About Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Customer Reviews

Good value in this class
There are several nice features to this cycle. For one thing, you can mount any standard saddle and pedals. Computer mounting is fairly easy as well, with the magnet already mounted on the flywheel and a screw attachment on the front fork. Some users may find the bottle cage useful, but I removed right away to make it easier to step through -- swinging your leg over the saddle will more than likely bash your ankle on the seat adjustment bar. Both the seat and handlebar posts are a bit loose in the highest positions, but you can cure this easily with shimming. Overall, construction feels pretty solid -- the welds look good and the unit is reassuringly heavy.

What would have made this a 5-star choice would be an optional standard handlebar stem fitting. This would let me set up the entire unit to better reproduce my road cycles. At my height of 74", I find the stock handlebars uncomfortably low after about 20 minutes. Another, much more minor gripe is that the front rollers (for moving the unit around) are a little undersized -- it's easier to pick the whole thing up and carry it than to tilt it forward high enough for the wheels to roll properly.

Stamina 9200 CPS Above Average
I only have a couple of negative comments on this equipment. In general it is a sturdy cycle and quite compact for a small house; however for a tall and older person it is quite unconfortable since the handle bars are too low even at the max height. I wish it came with a heart monitor already mounted.

Quality item but not gym equivalent
This bike is solid, (arrived scuffed up a bit) but the handle bars are very short and not comfortable for standing hill climb or for warmup "jogging". I am 5'7" so I am not excessively tall. The 29# flywheel is not substantial enough and does not provide a smooth hill climb when standing. Not comparabe to the Schwinn's and Lemonds I have used for years in classes. Would be fine if you don't want to get out of the saddle!
